No, they are completely different signs. The sign for 'lie down' uses a 'V' handshape to represent a person's legs resting on the palm of your non-dominant hand, whereas 'lies' is signed on the chin.
To sign 'liar', you first perform the sign for 'lie' by sliding your flat hand across your chin, and then immediately add the 'person marker' by sliding both flat hands downwards in front of your body.
